After the match:
Wilder says it seems all of the smart people in NXT have forgotten that the Revival are the greatest tag team in the world today. Luckily not all of you are morons because they won Tag Team of the Year.
Scott tells everyone to relax because they did not say everyone was smart. DIY should never have been tag team champions. At Takeover, they got demolished by the Authors of Pain. Scott tells the Authors of Pain they are the MVP of NXT and the best tag team on the planet. They have carried the tag team division on their backs around the world. Dawson says at Takeover Orlando, you will be a footnote to the Revival.
Scott says Top Guys Out, but . . .
The music for the Authors of Pain plays and they make their way to the ring.
The Revival leave the ring and they say it is nothing personal.

We take a look at Tyler Bate, who will be defending the UK title next week against Trent Seven. We see the video that aired during the UK Championship Tournament.
Bobby Roode makes his way to the ring for the first time as NXT World Champion.
Bobby says he is not the kind of guy to say I Told you so . . . Bobby laughs and he says he is that guy. Bobby shows the title belt and he says I Told You So. From the moment he walked down this ramp, he told everybody that Bobby Roode was on a completely different level. Night after night, match after match, Takeover after Takeover, he proved just that.
Shinsuke Nakamura, a man who ran roughshod for a decade (that is ten years) in Japan. Then for a year, he beat everybody. He beat Sami Zayn, Finn Balor, and even Samoa Joe. He beat every single man he got in the ring with . . . except him. Nakamura hit him with everything he had in San Antonio. Nakamura said he would kick his head off, but it is still attached. Nakamura hit him with the deadly Kinshasa right in the face, and he did not get the job done.
Bobby says as he held that championship over his head after he beat and embarrassed Nakamura, that was the single greatest moment in NXT history. Why? Because you have a real champion. A man who looks like a champion, who walks like a champion, who talks like a champion. He is a champion. He is THE champion. Now every ad, billboard, television commercial, and city they travel to, it is no longer WE ARE NXT because this is MY NXT.
This NXT is going to be simply . . . GLORIOUS!!!
We see the Trent Seven video package that aired during the UK Tournament.
